Can you give your dog vitamin c?
There is no reason to - commercially available dog food has plenty of vitamin C in it, so you would be wasting your money. Also, there is a risk of toxicity from vitamin C, so… it's not a good idea. The only time you should give vitamin C supplements to your dog is when your veterinarian tells you to. (MORE)

What can vitamin C do for you?
A lot. Like all vitamins, Vitamin C has a lot of benefits. It can help improve your health, mind, and appearance. Vitamin C is essential for healthy skin, eyes, and hair. Ca…rrots, and citrus fruits like oranges are a good source of Vitamin C. More Vitamin C can also mean less chance of gout. But like any vitamin or mineral, consuming too much can be harmful. So stock up on Vitamin C, but not too much. Taking Vitamin C while you have a cold can also help strengthen your immune system. Since Vitamin C is in oranges that's why people always saw to drink orange juice when your sick. It packed with Vitamin C. It can do a lot. Too much or too little of Vitamin C can be bad, but having just enough can do a lot to keep your body healthy. :) (MORE)

Why vitamin c is not a vitamin for dog?
'Normal' Vitamin C is too acidic and can often give a dog an upset stomach. You can give a Calcium based Vitamin C which I believe is called Ester C. Most animals, including …dogs, make their own vitamin C in their livers from glucose. Therefore, unless a dog's liver is severely compromised, the dog will make all the vitamin C it needs whenever the need arises. (MORE)

Why is it possible to overdose on Vitamin A but not on Vitamin C?
Vitamin A comes in two forms: Retinol/Retinaldehyde and Beta-Carotene. Retinol/Retinaldehyde comes from animal sources while Beta-Carotene comes from plant sources. Only Vitam…in A in the form of Retinol can be toxic or "over-dosed". This is because Vitamin A in this form is fat-soluble. Thus, when you consume over 100% of the recommended daily value, the rest is stored in your fat and organs, and thus can build up in your body and cause Vitamin A toxicity. Vitamins A,D,E, and K are the fat soluble vitamins and can all cause toxicity. However, Vitamin C and the B-vitamins (folate/folic acid, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, cyanocobalamin etc) are the water soluble vitamins. Thus, when you consume over 100% of the recommended daily value, you excrete the rest in your urine and feces. It is EXTREMELY difficult and rare to find a toxicity of the water-soluble vitamins for this reason. Remember though, Vitamin A in the form of Beta-Carotene can not cause Toxicity because it is not fat soluble. Generally, the nutrition community will refer to Vitamin A in the Retinol/Retinaldehyde form in current texts and Beta-Carotene as its own entity.

Is vitamin c and zinc the same?
Vitamin C and Zinc are not the same. Vitamin C is a vitamin. Zinc is a mineral. Both, however, are antioxidants. Vitamin and mineral antioxidants include Vitamins A, C, and E,… and minerals Zinc and Selenium. There are, however, other organic carbon compounds that also have anti-oxidative properties such as polyphenols and flavonoids... I can see your confusion as many people take Vit. C and/or Zinc as a natural cold prevention/remedy. However, among the nutritional community and according to the American Dietetic Association, there is no clinically significant evidence that's supports the idea that over-supplementing will prevent or cure a cold. Once you receive 100% of the daily value of any vitamin or mineral, your body will either excrete it via urine or feces (in the case of the water soluble vitamin C) or store it in your adipose tissue and other organs (in the case of fat soluble vitamins like A,D,E, and K). Storing too much of a vitamin is dangerous and will cause toxicity. PS. I'm a registered dietitian ;) (MORE)
